Fahrzeugstandort: England, ? One of only 59 delivered new to the UK \\? Matching chassis, engine and registration numbers \\? Ordered new with the desirable Rudge knock-off wheels option \\? Restored by Daimler-Benz between 1989 and 1992 \\? Known ownership history and Scott Collection since 2011 \\? Recently recommissioned by Jim Stokes Workshops Ltd \\ \\When it was first announced by Mercedes-Benz, the production 300 SL Coupé was a startling car built to the German concern's customarily startling standards, but above all what left the general public most open-mouthed about the new car was its upward-opening Gullwing doors...! - Motors, 1963. \\ \\Post-war, Mercedes-Benz had returned to competition in 1952, fielding its new 300 SL (W194) sports cars configured in both open roadster and closed 'gullwing' form ? the latter proving the more successful. In that year's Mille Miglia, a pair of gullwings finished a creditable 2nd and 4th overall and this promising start was followed up by victory in the gruelling Carrera Panamericana. For the Le Mans 24-Hour Race in June, a trio of gullwings were entered with a first and second overall sealing the car's world-beating credentials. \\ \\Launched in 1954, the production 300 SL retained the spaceframe chassis (the feature that necessitated the gullwing door design) and lightweight aluminium-alloy bodywork of the W194 racer while its mechanical underpinnings, like the latter's, owed much to the contemporary Mercedes-Benz 300 luxury saloon. A 2,996cc overhead-camshaft inline six, the 300 SL's engine was canted at 45 degrees to achieve a low bonnet line and developed to produce 215bhp (DIN) at 5,800rpm using Bosch mechanical fuel injection. A four-speed, all-synchromesh manual gearbox transmitted power to the hypoid bevel rear axle. Suspension was independent all round: by wishbones and coil springs at the front, with swing axles and coil springs at the rear. \\ \\A production 300 SL (W198) was tested by Road & Track magazine in 1955, accelerating from 0-60mph in 7.4 seconds on its way to a top speed of 140mph. Half expecting the long-awaited 300 SL to provide an anti-climax, R&T were delighted to find the new car, 'far beyond our wildest expectations. In fact, we can state unequivocally that in our opinion the 300 SL coupé is the ultimate in an all-round sportscar. It combines more desirable features in one streamlined package than we ever imagined or hoped would be possible. Performance? It accelerates from a dead start to 100mph in just over 17 seconds. Dual purpose? A production model 300 SL can make a very acceptable showing in any type of sportscar competition. Yet the car is extremely tractable and easy to drive in traffic. Comfort? The fully enclosed 300 SL is the most comfortable (and safe) high-speed 'cross-country' car built today.' High ...
